0:00:20 > 0:00:22APPLAUSE

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Thank you very much, indeed. Hello, I'm Alexander Armstrong

0:00:25 > 0:00:29and welcome to Pointless, the quiz show where the lowest scorers are the biggest winners.

0:00:29 > 0:00:30Let's meet today's players.

0:00:35 > 0:00:39First we welcome Hannah and Howard, our first pair on the show today.

0:00:39 > 0:00:43- How do you two know each other, Hannah?- Er, this is my dad

0:00:43 > 0:00:47and we're a father/daughter team. We make a good combo, really.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50Howard, what do you like to get up to?

0:00:50 > 0:00:54Well, I like to create things in the kitchen and I like to consume them.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57Very good!

0:00:57 > 0:01:00There is a slight Gregg Wallace look to Howard, what do you reckon?

0:01:00 > 0:01:03Gregg Wallace, I can see that.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06It has been said before, yes.

0:01:06 > 0:01:07That's his nickname.

0:01:07 > 0:01:10- Actually, there really is! - That's if Gregg Wallace had hair.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14Howard, what would you like to see come up? What would be a great topic for you?

0:01:14 > 0:01:17Geography, capital cities, countries, that sort of thing.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20Welcome Hannah and Howard, it's lovely to have you here,

0:01:20 > 0:01:23our father/daughter team. Very best of luck on Pointless.

0:01:23 > 0:01:27Next we welcome back Andrew and Phil. You were on the show last time.

0:01:27 > 0:01:29Remind us, Andrew, what happened?

0:01:29 > 0:01:33Well, we crashed shortly after take-off, really

0:01:33 > 0:01:34and went out in the first round.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37Anyway, you're back, it's a new day.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40What are you hoping is going to come up today, Phil?

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Erm, geography, capital cities, as well.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45Erm, and anything that's not sport.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48OK, what are your hobbies, Andrew?

0:01:48 > 0:01:50Well, I do all sorts of things.

0:01:50 > 0:01:55I once won a competition to create a vegetable sculpture.

0:01:55 > 0:01:56THEY LAUGH

0:01:56 > 0:01:59I made a vegetable sculpture of Amy Winehouse.

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Yes, we've all done that, God knows.

0:02:02 > 0:02:05I once made a vegetable sculpture of Bjorn Borg.

0:02:06 > 0:02:07Did you?

0:02:07 > 0:02:10It was a Swede.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11AUDIENCE GROAN

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Well, Andrew and Phil, you had very bad luck last time on Pointless,

0:02:17 > 0:02:21so very best of luck this time. I'm sure we'll see much more of you.

0:02:21 > 0:02:25Next we welcome Darren and Graham, how do you two know each other?

0:02:25 > 0:02:26Father and son.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Ah, father and daughter, father and son. Where are you from, Darren?

0:02:29 > 0:02:31I'm from Ipswich.

0:02:31 > 0:02:32And Graham, Ipswich too?

0:02:32 > 0:02:35Yeah, very close, Bury St Edmunds, still in Suffolk.

0:02:35 > 0:02:39- Darren, what do you do in Suffolk? - I'm a lecturer in media.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41In media, which bit of media?

0:02:41 > 0:02:44Radio, mainly.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Does that mean you don't have to turn up for the lecture...

0:02:46 > 0:02:49- Yeah, that's it, I can actually stay in a box. - You can do it from a booth.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53Welcome to the show, Darren and Graham, it's great to have you here.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56Finally, we welcome back Miriam and Geoff, who were on the show last time.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59Remember, everyone gets two chances to reach the Pointless final.

0:02:59 > 0:03:02This is your second chance. Remind us how you know each other?

0:03:02 > 0:03:06Er, we're married. We've been married for about four years.

0:03:06 > 0:03:10- Miriam, as we discovered last time, fell in love with the back of Geoff's head in church.- Yeah.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13And, at some stage he turned around, was that a shock?

0:03:15 > 0:03:17- No.- It only got better then.- Yeah.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Very, very best of luck, it's great to have you back.

0:03:20 > 0:03:23We'll find out more about all of you throughout the show.

0:03:23 > 0:03:25There's only one person left for me to introduce.

0:03:25 > 0:03:27He puts the "Ah" into encyclopaedi-ah.

0:03:27 > 0:03:30He's my Pointless friend, he's Richard.

0:03:30 > 0:03:32Hiya.

0:03:32 > 0:03:33APPLAUSE

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- It's a fun bunch today, isn't it? - Isn't it? Great bunch.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45And we've got a very big jackpot, as well, at the moment, haven't we?

0:03:45 > 0:03:47- Colossal.- It's going to be quite a show.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51Father and son team, versus father and daughter team, that'll be interesting.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54Did you hear right that Darren is a lecturer?

0:03:54 > 0:03:56A lecturer, yeah.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Does he seem like a lecturer to you?- No!

0:03:59 > 0:04:02- Does he look more like, say, a student to you?- Yeah.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05- Were you too polite to mention that at the time?- Yeah.

0:04:05 > 0:04:09First question on today's show has been asked for specifically by two people.

0:04:09 > 0:04:13- No.- Two people have asked for this specific question.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15It's question one.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17What about that, very good, we look forward to that.

0:04:17 > 0:04:21All our questions on Pointless have been put to 100 people before the show.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24In order to get to the final round, and be in with a chance of winning our jackpot,

0:04:24 > 0:04:29all our contestants need to do is find the obscure answers those 100 people couldn't get.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31The fewer of the 100 people who knew the answer,

0:04:31 > 0:04:34the fewer points they'll score. What everyone's trying to do, of course,

0:04:34 > 0:04:37is to find a pointless answer, an answer none of our 100 people knew

0:04:37 > 0:04:41and each time that happens we will add 250 quid to the jackpot.

0:04:41 > 0:04:45Nobody won the jackpot last time so we add another £1,000 to that.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49Today's jackpot starts off at £14,250.

0:04:49 > 0:04:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:04:54 > 0:04:57Right, if everyone's ready, let's play Pointless.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Now, each of you must give you must give me one answer

0:05:04 > 0:05:06and you cannot confer with your partner.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Whichever pair has the highest score will be eliminated.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13Try and make sure that's not you. OK, our first category is...

0:05:15 > 0:05:16Countries.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19Can you all decide who's going first and who's going second.

0:05:19 > 0:05:22And, whoever is going first, please step up to the podium.

0:05:24 > 0:05:29We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many countries

0:05:29 > 0:05:33whose capital cities start with the letter B.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37Countries whose capital cities start with the letter B, Richard?

0:05:37 > 0:05:41Phil and Howard asked for capitals. We're looking for any country whose capital

0:05:41 > 0:05:44has a name in English that starts with the letter B, please.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48As always, by country, we mean a member of the UN, a sovereign state in its own right.

0:05:48 > 0:05:51We don't need the name of the capital, just the country, please.

0:05:51 > 0:05:53And good luck at home, see how many you can get.

0:05:53 > 0:05:57Howard, Hannah, you all drew lots before the show

0:05:57 > 0:05:58and today you are going first.

0:05:58 > 0:06:00Howard?

0:06:00 > 0:06:04Right, I've got one in mind, which I think might be pointless.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08Sorry, we'll be the judge of that, Howard!

0:06:08 > 0:06:10THEY LAUGH

0:06:10 > 0:06:13I shall perhaps show a little bit of bravado,

0:06:13 > 0:06:18or maybe even foolishness, and I will go for Burundi.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20Sounds good, let's see if Burundi is right

0:06:20 > 0:06:23and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Burundi.

0:06:26 > 0:06:27It's right!

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Look at that, Howard!

0:06:35 > 0:06:36CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:06:36 > 0:06:39Your powers of prediction are exceptional.

0:06:39 > 0:06:43It's a pointless answer, it adds £250 to today's jackpot

0:06:43 > 0:06:46and takes the total up to £14,500.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48It scores you nothing and a slap on the back.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50Very well done to you, Howard. Richard.

0:06:50 > 0:06:55- Very well done, Howard, and the capital Burundi?- Bujurumbattle?

0:06:55 > 0:06:59- While, you're not a million miles away, Bujumbura.- Bujumbura.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03It's like Gregg Wallace with hair and a working knowledge of African geography.

0:07:03 > 0:07:08Very good indeed, wonderful start to the show and the round.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10Phil, we come to you.

0:07:10 > 0:07:14- Belize. - Belize, let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see

0:07:14 > 0:07:16how many of our 100 people said, Belize.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19It's right.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28And it's another pointless. Very well done indeed, Phil.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:07:30 > 0:07:33That adds another £250 to today's jackpot and takes the total

0:07:33 > 0:07:38up to £14,750 and it scores you nothing.

0:07:38 > 0:07:41- Very well done, indeed. Belize, Richard?- Very well played, Phil.

0:07:41 > 0:07:45- The capital of Belize? - It's Belmo, something like that.

0:07:45 > 0:07:48- It's Belmopan.- That's it.

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Thank you, Richard. Now then, Graham.

0:07:50 > 0:07:54Remember we are looking for countries whose capital cities begin with the letter B.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57I'm going to go for Germany.

0:07:57 > 0:08:02Let's see if that's right and if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said, Germany.

0:08:03 > 0:08:05Absolutely right.

0:08:08 > 0:08:0939.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11APPLAUSE

0:08:13 > 0:08:1539, not bad, Richard.

0:08:15 > 0:08:19- Well done, Graham, better safe than sorry and the capital of Germany?- Berlin.

0:08:19 > 0:08:22You're the first person to pronounce the name of the capital correctly.

0:08:24 > 0:08:26Now then, Miriam?

0:08:26 > 0:08:29I'm going to go for Hungary.

0:08:29 > 0:08:34OK, let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Hungary.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38It's right.

0:08:42 > 0:08:4413.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46APPLAUSE

0:08:46 > 0:08:5013 points for Hungary, very well done, Miriam.

0:08:50 > 0:08:51- Richard.- Well played, Miriam.

0:08:51 > 0:08:55- The capital being?- Budapest. - Absolutely right.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58OK, well thank you, Richard, we're now halfway through the round,

0:08:58 > 0:09:00let's take a look at our scores.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04Howard and Hannah, Phil and Andrew, two fabulous pointless scores there

0:09:04 > 0:09:06to kick off this round.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07Then we go to 13

0:09:07 > 0:09:09where we find Miriam and Geoff

0:09:09 > 0:09:11and then up to 39, not a bad score in itself

0:09:11 > 0:09:14but you are quite far ahead of the rest of the field.

0:09:14 > 0:09:19So, Darren, we've got to hope that you've got a brilliant answer in there, somewhere.

0:09:19 > 0:09:20OK, best of luck with that.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Can the second players take their places at the podium.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28So, remember, we're looking for countries whose capital cities

0:09:28 > 0:09:31start with the letter B.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33Geoff, you're on 13,

0:09:33 > 0:09:36the high scorers on 39 are Graham and Darren.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40If you can score 25 or less, through you go to the second round.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43I've got two in my head, I'm not sure which one will be the lowest.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45I'm not sure which one is right. I'm going to go for China.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Here's your red line,

0:09:47 > 0:09:50below that red line with China, into the second round.

0:09:50 > 0:09:55Let's see if it's right, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said, China.

0:09:57 > 0:09:58Absolutely right.

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Oh, you've done it.

0:10:04 > 0:10:05Seven for China.

0:10:05 > 0:10:07APPLAUSE

0:10:07 > 0:10:10Very well done indeed. Seven takes your total up to 20.

0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Richard?- Can you believe that score?

0:10:13 > 0:10:18Seven for Beijing, in China. That seems very low to me.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21- Does it seem low to you? - Yeah.- OK, Darren?

0:10:21 > 0:10:25You are the high scorers, on 39.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28We need a really low score from you to make sure you are with us

0:10:28 > 0:10:30after the end of this round.

0:10:30 > 0:10:32Brazil.

0:10:32 > 0:10:37Let's see if Brazil is right and, if it is, how many people said Brazil.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Absolutely right.

0:10:44 > 0:10:4519.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47APPLAUSE

0:10:47 > 0:10:4919, takes your total up to 58.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Good answer, Darren.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56- The capital of Brazil?- Brasilia. - Brasilia, absolutely right.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00Thank you very much Richard. Now then, Andrew?

0:11:00 > 0:11:05Phil managed to score nothing. The high-scorers are Darren and Graham on 58.

0:11:05 > 0:11:08A score of 57 or less will be enough to get you into the next round

0:11:08 > 0:11:13but a score of pointless or less is what we're expecting from you.

0:11:13 > 0:11:17Oh, you're going to be disappointed.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20- How about Romania? - Romania, says Andrew.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many of our 100 people said Romania.

0:11:28 > 0:11:29Yep, you've done it.

0:11:32 > 0:11:33Very well done, eight.

0:11:33 > 0:11:35APPLAUSE

0:11:37 > 0:11:40Eight scores you a single figure total of eight. Richard.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Great job, Andrew, did your job with room to spare.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Bucharest, the capital of Romania.

0:11:46 > 0:11:50Hannah, you're on nothing thanks to Howard's fantastic answer.

0:11:50 > 0:11:54The high scorers remain Darren and Graham on 58.

0:11:54 > 0:11:5757 or less is all we need from you.

0:11:57 > 0:12:00We're looking for countries whose capital cities begin with the letter B.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03I've a couple of options in my head but I am going to go with Slovakia.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Slovakia, is it right? How many people said it?

0:12:08 > 0:12:09It's right.

0:12:11 > 0:12:12Very well done.

0:12:15 > 0:12:20Not a bad safe play there, Hannah, very well done. Two points.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23Take your total to two. Richard.

0:12:23 > 0:12:26- Well played, Hannah, the capital of Slovakia?- Bratislava.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29That was you playing it safe!

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Well I had Baghdad but I didn't know whether that was Afghanistan...

0:12:32 > 0:12:36- Nothing safe about that! - Or, the other one, Iraq.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40I wasn't sure of the country. I thought I'll stick with that one because I know the answer.

0:12:40 > 0:12:44- Baghdad would have scored you seven points. Baghdad is Iraq.- Iraq.

0:12:44 > 0:12:50Would've scored you seven points. Everybody here forgot the central golden rule of Pointless.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53- Always say... - Central African Republic.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Always say Central African Republic,

0:12:55 > 0:12:59- it was a pointless answer, Bangui.- Bangui.

0:12:59 > 0:13:03- Where we had our...- Lovely Christmas party.- Yeah. It was wonderful.

0:13:03 > 0:13:04THEY LAUGH

0:13:04 > 0:13:07Let's take a look at all the pointless answers, there's quite a few.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10I suspect some people at home will have got a few of these.

0:13:10 > 0:13:12We've seen the first couple, Belize, which is Belmopan

0:13:12 > 0:13:14and Burundi, Bujumbura.

0:13:14 > 0:13:19- We had both of those. Central African Republic...- There we are.- Bangui.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- Those Bangui nights.- Oh...

0:13:22 > 0:13:26And a good 33% of us made it back, which is lovely.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29Like every good Christmas party should be.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Let's take a look at a few more.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34Guinea-Bissau, Bissau is the capital of Guinea-Bissau.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Kyrgyzstan, capital of Kyrgyzstan is Bishkek.

0:13:37 > 0:13:39Mali, capital of Mali is Bamako.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Republic of the Congo, Brazzaville,

0:13:44 > 0:13:46St Kitts and Nevis is Basseterre

0:13:46 > 0:13:50and the Gambia, that is Banjul. Very well done if you got any of those pointless answers at home.

0:13:50 > 0:13:55Thank you very much indeed, Richard. At the end of our first round, the pair who are leaving us

0:13:55 > 0:13:59with their highest score, I'm afraid, Darren and Graham.

0:13:59 > 0:14:03Not a bad score at all, 58, but, er...

0:14:03 > 0:14:08..you just came up against some crack capital city people.

0:14:08 > 0:14:11I also didn't know what I was going to say then.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13THEY LAUGH

0:14:13 > 0:14:15I'm glad it came out OK!

0:14:15 > 0:14:18You will be back, of course, next time.

0:14:18 > 0:14:22I'm sure we'll see much more of you. Thanks very much for playing, Darren and Graham.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24APPLAUSE

0:14:24 > 0:14:27For the remaining three pairs, it's time for Round Two.

0:14:33 > 0:14:37At the end of this round we will be sending home another pair.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40So we have our two pairs for the head-to-head.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Hannah and Howard, you played phenomenally well,

0:14:42 > 0:14:45a lovely low score of two in the last round,

0:14:45 > 0:14:48but you are now up against two returning pairs.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50How are you feeling?

0:14:50 > 0:14:52- Nervous.- Nervous.- Nervous.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55You played one of your aces there with capital cities.

0:14:55 > 0:14:58- I feel the next question may find us out.- Yes.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01OK, good luck to all of you. Our category for Round Two is...

0:15:03 > 0:15:04Celebrity.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08Can you all decide in your pairs who's going first

0:15:08 > 0:15:12and who's going second. Whoever is going first, step up to the podium.

0:15:16 > 0:15:19Our Round Two question concerns...

0:15:19 > 0:15:22Famous women and their maiden names.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25Famous women and their maiden names. Richard?

0:15:25 > 0:15:28On each pass we are going to give you a list of six famous women,

0:15:28 > 0:15:30you have to tell us their surname at birth.

0:15:30 > 0:15:32Give us an incorrect answer, you will score 100.

0:15:32 > 0:15:35What you want is a nice obscure answer to score the fewest points.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38There are 12 in all to have a go at home. Very best of luck.

0:15:38 > 0:15:44Thanks, Richard. We're looking for the maiden names of these famous women. We have got...

0:15:55 > 0:15:57I'll read those again, one last time.

0:16:03 > 0:16:09There we are, six famous women. What we need are their maiden names

0:16:09 > 0:16:13and you are trying to find the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:16:13 > 0:16:16Hannah, what do you make of that board of famous women?

0:16:16 > 0:16:20I don't know any of the answers so I will just say, Gabby Smith.

0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Gabby Smith for Gabby Logan. - Yeah. Gabby Smith.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26OK, let's see if that's right and if it is, how many people knew that answer.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Gabby Smith.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Bad luck, Hannah.

0:16:32 > 0:16:37I'm afraid, as you probably guessed, an incorrect answer, which means you score the maximum of 100 points.

0:16:37 > 0:16:38I'm sorry. Richard?

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Unlucky, Hannah. If you're going to guess,

0:16:40 > 0:16:43then statistically that's the best guess you could possibly have.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46Not right. I'll give you the correct answer at the end of the round.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49Now then, Phil, what do you make of this board?

0:16:49 > 0:16:53There's a couple I know, certainly, probably three.

0:16:53 > 0:16:58I'll go with Princess Grace of Monaco, Grace Kelly.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Mon-AH-co, see.

0:17:01 > 0:17:02THEY LAUGH

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many people knew that answer.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11It's right.

0:17:14 > 0:17:1546.

0:17:15 > 0:17:16APPLAUSE

0:17:16 > 0:17:1846 for Grace Kelly.

0:17:20 > 0:17:25Yes, well done, Phil, she married the Prince of Mon-AH-co in 1956.

0:17:25 > 0:17:30No-one's paying any attention to the pronunciation because now we can see Andrew's trousers.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32LAUGHTER

0:17:33 > 0:17:38- They're very smart.- Thank you. - Good trousers.- It's a good look.

0:17:38 > 0:17:44Miriam, we are looking for the maiden names of these famous women.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46Five for you to choose from there.

0:17:46 > 0:17:48I'm not sure whether I've got the right person

0:17:48 > 0:17:51- but I'm going to go for it anyway.- OK.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53I am going with Evonne Goolagong.

0:17:53 > 0:17:54- Evonne Goolagong.- Yeah.

0:17:54 > 0:17:59OK, let's see if that's right and, if it is, how many of our 100 people knew that answer.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Absolutely right, Miriam, very well done.

0:18:06 > 0:18:1017. Best score of the pass. Very well done indeed.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12APPLAUSE

0:18:13 > 0:18:16- Evonne Goolagong.- Well played, Miriam, very good answer.

0:18:16 > 0:18:18She won the Wimbledon Women's Singles title.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Let's go through the board.

0:18:20 > 0:18:24Do you want have a go at this, anything up there you fancy? Shall we start with Gabby Logan,

0:18:24 > 0:18:27- because we've had that one? - I can't remember what her name was.

0:18:27 > 0:18:30Gabby Yorath, the daughter of Terry Yorath,

0:18:30 > 0:18:32the Wales International footballer.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36It would've scored you 26 points, it's actually a pretty big score.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39- Hillary Clinton?- Is Rodham. - Absolutely right.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42- It would have scored you four. Margaret Thatcher?- Roberts.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45- It would have scored 12 and Indira Gandhi?- No.

0:18:45 > 0:18:49- Nehru.- Nehru!- That would have scored you seven points.

0:18:49 > 0:18:52The best answer on the board there is Hillary Rodham Clinton.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56Very well done if you got that. Well done if you got all six, especially.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00Thanks very much, Richard. We're halfway through the round. Let's look at the scores as they stand.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Lovely low score there from Miriam. 17, very well done.

0:19:03 > 0:19:07That puts you in a strong position at this point of the round.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10Then we come to 46, where we find Phil and Andrew

0:19:10 > 0:19:14and then up to 100 where Hannah and Howard currently are.

0:19:14 > 0:19:18Howard, this puts the pressure on you but if anyone is going

0:19:18 > 0:19:22to know the maiden name of a famous woman, I am sure it is you.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25Can the second players take their places at the podium.

0:19:28 > 0:19:31We are going to put six more famous women on the board

0:19:31 > 0:19:32and here they come. We have got...

0:19:43 > 0:19:45I'll read those all one last time.

0:19:53 > 0:19:57There we are. Remember, we are looking for the maiden names of these famous women

0:19:57 > 0:20:00and you are trying to find the one the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Geoff, you are the lowest scorers on 17.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06The highest scorers on 100 are Howard and Hannah.

0:20:06 > 0:20:09A score of 82 or less will see you through to the head-to-head.

0:20:09 > 0:20:12You get first pick of the board.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14Yeah, erm...

0:20:14 > 0:20:16I think I only know one.

0:20:16 > 0:20:21I'm just going to go for Sarah Ferguson, for Sarah, Duchess of York.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25There is your red line, below that you're through to the head-to-head.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Let's see how the people said Ferguson for Sarah, Duchess of York.

0:20:30 > 0:20:31Absolutely right.

0:20:33 > 0:20:3548.

0:20:35 > 0:20:36APPLAUSE

0:20:36 > 0:20:3948, takes your total up to 65.

0:20:41 > 0:20:46Well done, Geoff, married Prince Andrew in 1986. Do you know where they met?

0:20:46 > 0:20:47Skiing.

0:20:47 > 0:20:51No, Sarah Ferguson saw the back of Prince Andrew's head in a church.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53It happens.

0:20:53 > 0:20:55- No, it probably was skiing. - It probably was.

0:20:55 > 0:21:01Now, Andrew, the high-scorers are still Howard and Hannah on 100.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05You're on 46 which means a score of 53 or less will see you

0:21:05 > 0:21:07through to the head-to-head.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09What you think about the board behind me?

0:21:09 > 0:21:11I think it's pretty horrible.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14I'm going to go with... It is a punt.

0:21:14 > 0:21:19I'm going with Elizabeth Browning and I'm going to say Barrett.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23Let's see if Barrett was indeed, Elizabeth Browning's maiden name.

0:21:26 > 0:21:28Absolutely right, very well done, Andrew.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31Sees you into the head-to-head, comfortably.

0:21:31 > 0:21:3316.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35APPLAUSE

0:21:35 > 0:21:37Takes your total up to 62.

0:21:39 > 0:21:44Well played, Andrew, comfortably through again. Elizabeth Barrett Browning, absolutely right.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45The hunch paid off.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48Thank you very much, Richard. Now then, Howard.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52Bad news for you. I'm afraid you're the high-scorers,

0:21:52 > 0:21:57even before you've submitted your brilliant answer.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00However, take us through the board.

0:22:00 > 0:22:03I should know Linda McCartney but it escapes my mind.

0:22:03 > 0:22:05I haven't a clue about Marie Curie.

0:22:05 > 0:22:09Cherie Blair, is Cherie Booth.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11And, I think the best answer on the board is probably

0:22:11 > 0:22:16Lucinda Green which, I believe, is Lucinda Prior-Palmer.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18That's my answer.

0:22:18 > 0:22:20- Lucinda Prior-Palmer?- Yes.

0:22:20 > 0:22:23No red line for you as, I'm afraid, you are already the high-scorers

0:22:23 > 0:22:27but maybe you might have found a pointless answer

0:22:27 > 0:22:31that can add £250 to the jackpot. Let's see, Lucinda Prior-Palmer, says Howard.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33Is it right? How many people said it?

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Absolutely right, Howard, great answer.

0:22:42 > 0:22:43Oh! Very well done.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46APPLAUSE

0:22:46 > 0:22:50Cracking score. By a margin, the best score of the entire round.

0:22:50 > 0:22:54But, sadly, that takes your total up to 106. Richard.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56Unlucky, Howard. Lucinda Prior-Palmer was an eventer,

0:22:56 > 0:23:00who won the Badminton horse trials six times.

0:23:00 > 0:23:01Take a look at the rest of the board.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05Cherie Blair, Howard, you're right, is Cherie Booth. It would have scored you 26.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Know Linda McCartney's maiden name?

0:23:07 > 0:23:09Eastman.

0:23:09 > 0:23:13It would've scored you 14. And Marie Curie?

0:23:13 > 0:23:16Come on, it's Sklodowska!

0:23:16 > 0:23:19It would have scored three points.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22Well done to three of our 100 and very well done if you got all six of those at home.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25Thank you. Sklodowska, I've never heard that before in my life.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Yeah, Marie Sklodowska.

0:23:27 > 0:23:31At the end of Round Two, the losing pair with the highest score,

0:23:31 > 0:23:33I'm sorry to say it's Howard and Hannah.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35It was a tough board, that.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38Yes, Gabby Logan, Gabby Yorath.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41- We've all learnt something today. - Yeah.- There we are.

0:23:41 > 0:23:45Howard and Hannah, we will see you again next time where I'm sure we'll see more of you.

0:23:45 > 0:23:48Meanwhile, thanks for playing, great contestants.

0:23:48 > 0:23:49APPLAUSE

0:23:49 > 0:23:54For the remaining two pairs, things are about to get more exciting as we enter the head-to-head.

0:24:01 > 0:24:04Congratulations, Andrew and Phil, Miriam and Geoff,

0:24:04 > 0:24:07you are now only one round away from the final and a chance

0:24:07 > 0:24:11to play for that massive jackpot, which currently stands at £14,750.

0:24:11 > 0:24:13APPLAUSE

0:24:17 > 0:24:21Obviously, only one pair can play for that money and to decide which pair it's going to be,

0:24:21 > 0:24:24you are going head-to-head on the best of three questions.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26For each question, you'll be shown five options on the board.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29Each pair needs to answer with just one of them

0:24:29 > 0:24:31and you are now allowed to confer.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34All you have to do is given answer that scores less than the other pair

0:24:34 > 0:24:39and you will win that question. The first pair to win two questions will be playing for the jackpot.

0:24:39 > 0:24:44So, then, Andrew and Phil, you left us in the first round last time.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47Miriam and Geoff, you were in the head-to-head last time

0:24:47 > 0:24:52but didn't make it through to the final. What advice are you going to hand on to Andrew and Phil?

0:24:52 > 0:24:54Probably trust your gut instinct.

0:24:54 > 0:24:58Don't believe them, they're giving you duff advice, deliberately.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01Good luck to both pairs. Let's play the head-to-head.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10OK, here comes your first question. It concerns...

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Classic Musicals. Richard.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17We're to show you five stills or publicity shots

0:25:17 > 0:25:22from some classic film musicals. Can you name the musicals, please.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25Let's reveal our five stills from Classic Musicals and here they are. We have got...

0:25:39 > 0:25:43There we are, five stills from classic film musicals.

0:25:43 > 0:25:47Andrew and Phil, because you played best throughout the show so far,

0:25:47 > 0:25:50you get to go first.

0:25:51 > 0:25:54We know four, we think.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56We are going to go with D, which is Guys And Dolls.

0:25:56 > 0:25:59Guys And Dolls, for D, say Andrew and Phil.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Now then Miriam and Geoff?

0:26:02 > 0:26:05- We think C is Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.- Yeah.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07- And E is Oliver.- Mm-hm.

0:26:07 > 0:26:11- I think they'll both be higher than Guys And Dolls.- Mm-hm.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16We're going to take a punt on B and say My Fair Lady.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20My Fair Lady, you are saying for B.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22My Fair Lady.

0:26:22 > 0:26:25So, we have Guys And Dolls for D, say Andrew and Phil.

0:26:25 > 0:26:29Let's see if that is indeed, Guys And Dolls, and, if it is, how many people said it?

0:26:31 > 0:26:33It's right.

0:26:38 > 0:26:39Wow, look at that! Nine.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41APPLAUSE

0:26:45 > 0:26:46Cracking score.

0:26:46 > 0:26:51Miriam and Geoff, you are going for My Fair Lady for B.

0:26:51 > 0:26:55Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said My Fair Lady for B.

0:27:00 > 0:27:02Bad luck.

0:27:02 > 0:27:05An incorrect answer, as it turns out.

0:27:05 > 0:27:08After one question, Andrew and Phil, you are up, 1-0. Richard.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Well played, Andrew and Phil and Miriam and Geoff,

0:27:11 > 0:27:14that's the only answer that would have beaten Guys And Dolls.

0:27:14 > 0:27:17It's actually an American In Paris,

0:27:17 > 0:27:21a Gene Kelly film based on the songs of George Gershwin.

0:27:21 > 0:27:27That would have scored you five points. The best answer up there. Well done if you said that at home.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29Let's have a look at the rest. Do you know A, Alexander?

0:27:29 > 0:27:30There are seven, I'll say

0:27:30 > 0:27:32Seven Brides For Seven Brothers.

0:27:32 > 0:27:33You'd be absolutely right.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35That would have scored you 35 points.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39- C?- Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41You're absolutely right

0:27:41 > 0:27:42and that would've scored 37,

0:27:42 > 0:27:44so wouldn't have won the point either.

0:27:44 > 0:27:47And you're right on E, as well, it's Oliver.

0:27:47 > 0:27:49That would have scored you 79 points.

0:27:49 > 0:27:52Thanks very much, Richard. Here comes your second question.

0:27:52 > 0:27:56Miriam and Geoff, you have to win this question to stay in the game.

0:27:56 > 0:27:58Very best of luck. It concerns...

0:28:00 > 0:28:01Chemical Elements.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04THEY LAUGH

0:28:04 > 0:28:06Chemical Elements. Richard?

0:28:06 > 0:28:09It's getting harder. You need to pay attention.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12We are going to show you the names of five chemical elements

0:28:12 > 0:28:15but on each of them we've left out two letters.

0:28:15 > 0:28:19The letters we've left out are the two letters of their chemical symbols.

0:28:19 > 0:28:23Five chemical elements, we've left out the two letters of their chemical symbols.

0:28:23 > 0:28:27- Can you solve these five, please?- Wow!

0:28:27 > 0:28:30OK, thanks, Richard, so let's reveal our chemical elements

0:28:30 > 0:28:33with missing letters and we have got...

0:28:50 > 0:28:52I'll read those all one last time.

0:29:04 > 0:29:05There are your chemical elements

0:29:05 > 0:29:08with the two letters of their chemical symbol missing.

0:29:08 > 0:29:13Now then, Miriam and Geoff, you get to go first this time.

0:29:13 > 0:29:16I think we know a few but I think, hopefully,

0:29:16 > 0:29:21the lowest scoring one might be Radon.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24- For A-D-O.- A-D-O.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27OK, you are going to say Radon for -ADO-.

0:29:27 > 0:29:29Andrew and Phil?

0:29:31 > 0:29:34You can talk us through the board, if you like.

0:29:36 > 0:29:40Neon, Magnesium, Radon, the bottom one is Silicon

0:29:40 > 0:29:42and the second from the bottom starts with a Y

0:29:42 > 0:29:45but I can't remember what the missing letter is.

0:29:45 > 0:29:46- Silicon.- OK, Silicon.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48Silicon, yeah.

0:29:48 > 0:29:51You are going to go with Silicon, at the bottom there.

0:29:51 > 0:29:53OK, we have Radon, we have Silicon.

0:29:53 > 0:29:56Miriam and Geoff went with Radon. How many people said it?

0:29:58 > 0:29:59Absolutely right.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04Still going down... 38. 38 for Radon.

0:30:04 > 0:30:06APPLAUSE

0:30:06 > 0:30:08Are we happy with that?

0:30:08 > 0:30:11We thought it might be lower.

0:30:11 > 0:30:14OK, let's find out. Andrew and Phil have said Silicon.

0:30:14 > 0:30:19If you win this, you go straight through to the final and you'll be playing for that jackpot.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21Let's see, Silicon, is it right, how many people said?

0:30:23 > 0:30:25It's right.

0:30:27 > 0:30:2969.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31APPLAUSE

0:30:31 > 0:30:36Miriam and Geoff, that's exactly what you had to do. It means after two questions you are 1-1. Richard.

0:30:36 > 0:30:39Well played, Miriam and Geoff and a tactical slip from Andrew and Phil

0:30:39 > 0:30:43because you knew the top one, as well, didn't you? Which is Neon.

0:30:43 > 0:30:46That would have scored you 19 points,

0:30:46 > 0:30:50it would have seen you safely through to the final.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53Silicon, Si from its chemical symbol in front of it.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55Radon, we put the Rn.

0:30:55 > 0:30:57Neon, the Ne. And carrying on like that,

0:30:57 > 0:31:00the second one down is Magnesium, the symbol is Mg

0:31:00 > 0:31:02and would have scored you 86.

0:31:02 > 0:31:04The last when you're quite right begins with Y

0:31:04 > 0:31:07is Ytterbium.

0:31:07 > 0:31:10It would have scored you nine points, the best answer on the board.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14Thank you very much, Richard. Here comes your third and final question.

0:31:14 > 0:31:18The decider - whoever wins this goes through to the final to play

0:31:18 > 0:31:22for that massive jackpot. Here is your third question. It concerns...

0:31:22 > 0:31:23The London Marathon.

0:31:23 > 0:31:26- Richard?- Good luck to both teams.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29We are about to show you five clues to facts about the London Marathon,

0:31:29 > 0:31:33can you provide us with the most obscure answer, please.

0:31:33 > 0:31:35OK, here are five facts about the London Marathon.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37They are...

0:31:54 > 0:31:56I'll read all of those again.

0:32:14 > 0:32:16There we are, five facts about the London Marathon.

0:32:16 > 0:32:19You're looking for the one you think the fewest of our 100 people knew.

0:32:19 > 0:32:23And Andrew and Phil, you are up first.

0:32:25 > 0:32:29OK, we are going to go with the year the London Marathon

0:32:29 > 0:32:36was first held which, I think, was 1982.

0:32:36 > 0:32:41The year the London Marathon was first held, you are saying 1982.

0:32:41 > 0:32:43Right, Miriam and Geoff?

0:32:45 > 0:32:49The distance is obviously 26 miles

0:32:49 > 0:32:53and the bridge, I think, is Tower Bridge.

0:32:53 > 0:32:55We'll go with Tower Bridge, for the bridge.

0:32:55 > 0:32:57You are going to go for Tower Bridge,

0:32:57 > 0:33:00the bridge over which they cross the Thames on its current route.

0:33:00 > 0:33:04Andrew and Phil have said 1982, the year it was first held.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08Let's see if that's right and, if it is, let's see how many people said 1982.

0:33:14 > 0:33:161982, an incorrect answer which means Miriam and Geoff,

0:33:16 > 0:33:20you merely have to be correct with Tower Bridge.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23- Are you confident?- Not any more!

0:33:26 > 0:33:29- Are you now wishing you had gone for 26 miles?- Yeah.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32Tower Bridge, is it right? It's all it has to be.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36It's right, very well done.

0:33:39 > 0:33:4131 points, the answer.

0:33:41 > 0:33:42APPLAUSE

0:33:48 > 0:33:5131 points, the score there but all it had to be was correct.

0:33:51 > 0:33:55That it was, which means after three questions, Miriam and Geoff,

0:33:55 > 0:33:58you are through to the final, 2-1. Richard.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01Well played, Miriam and Geoff, and tough luck, Andrew and Phil.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04The last show you were knocked out by one letter

0:34:04 > 0:34:07- and this show you're been knocked out by one year.- '81, wasn't it?

0:34:07 > 0:34:12'81, absolutely right and would have only scored you 16 points.

0:34:12 > 0:34:14It would have seen you safely through.

0:34:14 > 0:34:16It was won by Dick Beardsley and Inge Simonsen.

0:34:16 > 0:34:18They had a dead heat finish.

0:34:18 > 0:34:21The distance of the race, absolutely right, is 26 miles.

0:34:21 > 0:34:24It would have scored you a fairly hefty 68.

0:34:24 > 0:34:27The nationality of Emmanuel Mutai, he's Kenyan.

0:34:27 > 0:34:29That would have scored you 37, that was a big score.

0:34:29 > 0:34:33The last British man to win the London Marathon to date is the best answer up there.

0:34:33 > 0:34:38It was his first ever marathon in 1993 Eamonn Martin, one point.

0:34:39 > 0:34:43Well, our losing pair at the end of the head-to-head, I'm afraid, Andrew and Phil.

0:34:43 > 0:34:46Dear, oh dear, you've done heroically this time.

0:34:46 > 0:34:51Fantastic performance throughout the show and you've done fantastically in the head-to-head.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54It was just really tough, one year out. Was it between...?

0:34:54 > 0:34:57I was fairly certain. I knew there was a slight risk on it

0:34:57 > 0:35:02but I remember wearing a T-shirt and I remember where I was in 1982,

0:35:02 > 0:35:06wearing that T-shirt. I just...

0:35:06 > 0:35:08Were you at the second London Marathon?

0:35:08 > 0:35:09THEY LAUGH

0:35:10 > 0:35:13Oh, well, many congratulations on an excellent performance.

0:35:13 > 0:35:16I'm sorry that doesn't carry you through to the final.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19It's been great having you, Andrew and Phil, excellent contestants.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21APPLAUSE

0:35:23 > 0:35:26But, for Miriam and Geoff, it's now time for our Pointless final.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34Well, congratulations, Miriam and Geoff.

0:35:34 > 0:35:38You fought off all the competition and you've won our Pointless trophy.

0:35:44 > 0:35:46You now have a chance to win our Pointless jackpot

0:35:46 > 0:35:51and at the end of today's show, the jackpot stands at £14,750!

0:35:51 > 0:35:53AUDIENCE: Ooh!

0:35:56 > 0:36:00What are you hoping, any particular things at this stage

0:36:00 > 0:36:03you think would be a great final round?

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Something on like, I don't know, films like that

0:36:06 > 0:36:09seems to be a strong point for us or TV, or something like that.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11- Film or TV?- Yeah. - Anything else, Miriam?

0:36:11 > 0:36:15- Tennis.- Film, TV, a bit of tennis? - I don't know.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18OK, well, the rules are very simple. To win that money,

0:36:18 > 0:36:20all you have to do is find a pointless answer.

0:36:20 > 0:36:22We've had two pointless answers on the show today,

0:36:22 > 0:36:26you only have to find one more now and you will go home with that money.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29First, you've got to choose a category from these five options.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31They are...

0:36:31 > 0:36:32Crime Writers...

0:36:32 > 0:36:33LAUGHTER

0:36:33 > 0:36:35Tennis.

0:36:35 > 0:36:36LAUGHTER

0:36:36 > 0:36:38Soul Divas,

0:36:38 > 0:36:40Carry On Stars,

0:36:40 > 0:36:41Artists.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45- We might as well.- Yeah. - I don't know.

0:36:45 > 0:36:46I feel like we've got to say tennis.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48Yeah, you have, haven't you?

0:36:48 > 0:36:50I don't think we'll be very good at any of the others,

0:36:50 > 0:36:52- so we'll go with tennis. - Yeah. Oh, no.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Tennis, it is.

0:36:54 > 0:36:56OK, let's find out what the question is. Here it comes...

0:36:56 > 0:37:01We gave 100 people 100 seconds to name as many...

0:37:01 > 0:37:05Grand Slam winning tennis players of the 1990s

0:37:05 > 0:37:07as they could. Richard.

0:37:07 > 0:37:11We're looking for any tennis player, male or female, who won a Grand Slam singles title

0:37:11 > 0:37:13between 1990 and 1999, inclusive.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15Of course, the four Grand Slam tournaments,

0:37:15 > 0:37:19the Australian Open, the French Open, the US Open and Wimbledon.

0:37:19 > 0:37:20Very best of luck.

0:37:20 > 0:37:24OK, now then - you have up to one minute to come up with

0:37:24 > 0:37:28three answers, and all you need to win that £14,750

0:37:28 > 0:37:31is for just one of those answers to be pointless.

0:37:31 > 0:37:33- Are you ready?- Yes.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36OK, let's put 60 seconds on the clock.

0:37:38 > 0:37:39There they are.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Your time starts now.

0:37:41 > 0:37:44OK there's Conchita Martinez.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47- When was she?- She was '90s, I think '92, or something.- OK.

0:37:47 > 0:37:51- And Michael Stich.- Yeah.- He won Wimbledon, I think, in the '90s.

0:37:51 > 0:37:55There was a European guy who won the Australian Open.

0:37:55 > 0:37:59- Erm, I can't remember his name, though.- Just relax.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01- What was his name? - Do you want to come back to it?

0:38:01 > 0:38:05- Petr, Petr Korda, maybe? - Right, OK.

0:38:05 > 0:38:08- Richard Krajicek?- Krajicek.

0:38:08 > 0:38:12- Which are the most obscure? Petr Korda's a good shout.- Yeah. - If that's right.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- Conchita Martinez?- Conchita Martinez...- Any other females?

0:38:17 > 0:38:20Lindsey Davenport, was she after '90s?

0:38:20 > 0:38:24- No, she would have won in the '90s, Lindsay Davenport.- Erm...

0:38:25 > 0:38:28I think maybe Michael Stich. I don't know. What do you think?

0:38:28 > 0:38:31- Conchita Martinez. - Conchita Martinez.- Michael Stich. - And Petr Korda.

0:38:31 > 0:38:32Ten seconds left.

0:38:32 > 0:38:36- Not Patrick Korda? - No Petr Korda. Oh, Patrick Korda.

0:38:36 > 0:38:40- Petr Korda.- Petr Korda, go with your instinct. That was your advice.

0:38:40 > 0:38:42- Petr Korda.- OK, so which order shall we do?

0:38:42 > 0:38:44OK, your minute is up.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47A lot of answers there. Which ones are you going to focus on?

0:38:47 > 0:38:52- So we'll do Conchita Martinez. - Conchita Martinez.

0:38:52 > 0:38:55- Michael Stich.- Yeah.- Michael Stich.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58- And Petr Korda.- And Petr Korda.

0:38:58 > 0:39:02Of those three, which is your best shot at a pointless answer?

0:39:02 > 0:39:06- Petr Korda?- Yeah. - If he's right! Petr Korda.

0:39:06 > 0:39:09OK, Petr Korda, put him last.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11Then maybe Conchita Martinez, second to last.

0:39:11 > 0:39:16- Conchita Martinez in the middle, and...?- Michael Stich, first.

0:39:16 > 0:39:19OK, let's put them up on the board in that order and here they are.

0:39:19 > 0:39:24We have got Michael Stich, Conchita Martinez and Petr Korda.

0:39:24 > 0:39:28We're looking for Grand Slam winning tennis players from the 1990s.

0:39:28 > 0:39:33Your first answer was Michael Stich. You said this was your least confident answer.

0:39:33 > 0:39:35You only have to find one pointless answer to win that jackpot.

0:39:35 > 0:39:39£14,750, what would you do with that, Miriam?

0:39:39 > 0:39:43Erm, maybe put a deposit down on a house, take my mum on holiday.

0:39:43 > 0:39:48- What about Geoff? - With him, obviously. - I see, you get to go, too.

0:39:48 > 0:39:52- Fair enough.- Buy some clothes, give some away.

0:39:52 > 0:39:56OK, we were looking for Grand Slam winning tennis players of the 1990s.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59Your first answer, Michael Stich.

0:39:59 > 0:40:03Let's see if it's right and how many people said it,

0:40:03 > 0:40:05if it is, Michael Stich.

0:40:07 > 0:40:09It's right.

0:40:09 > 0:40:13It's absolutely right. This for £14,750.

0:40:13 > 0:40:17If this goes all the way down to zero, you leave with that money immediately.

0:40:17 > 0:40:18Down it goes, still going down.

0:40:18 > 0:40:20Yes! You've done it!

0:40:20 > 0:40:24CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:40:24 > 0:40:29Well done, you. That is fantastic. Wow!

0:40:29 > 0:40:33That's amazing. Brilliant.

0:40:35 > 0:40:36Wow!

0:40:37 > 0:40:39Wow!

0:40:43 > 0:40:46- It's crazy.- What about that?

0:40:46 > 0:40:48Your first answer.

0:40:48 > 0:40:52Oh, you made that look effortless.

0:40:52 > 0:40:56Well, many congratulations. Michael Stich, a pointless answer which means

0:40:56 > 0:40:59you go home with the jackpot of £14,750.

0:40:59 > 0:41:01CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:41:05 > 0:41:07It's amazing.

0:41:08 > 0:41:12Very, very well done, indeed. Richard, what about that?

0:41:12 > 0:41:16Brilliant, it fell perfectly into your lap but, you know, you've got to make it to the final

0:41:16 > 0:41:19to be able to get that luck, anyway. Very well done, well deserved.

0:41:19 > 0:41:241991, Michael Stich won Wimbledon and it's won you £14,750.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27Conchita Martinez won Wimbledon in 1994,

0:41:27 > 0:41:29she was also a pointless answer.

0:41:29 > 0:41:32APPLAUSE

0:41:37 > 0:41:40And, Petr Korda won the Australian Open in 1998,

0:41:40 > 0:41:41also a pointless answer.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Very well done.

0:41:48 > 0:41:50Triple pointless.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54Terrifically well done. Let's take a look at all the pointless answers.

0:41:54 > 0:41:57Andres Gomez won the French Open in 1990,

0:41:57 > 0:41:59Carlos Moya won the French in 1998.

0:41:59 > 0:42:00There's Conchita Martinez.

0:42:02 > 0:42:04Gustavo Kuerten also won the French Open.

0:42:04 > 0:42:07There's Mary Pierce who won the Australian Open in 1995.

0:42:07 > 0:42:11Michael Stich won Wimbledon, as we've already discovered.

0:42:11 > 0:42:14Petr Korda won the Australian Open in 1998.

0:42:14 > 0:42:16Thomas Muster, who won the French in 1995

0:42:16 > 0:42:20and Yevgeny Kafelnikov, who won two Grand Slam titles,

0:42:20 > 0:42:221996, the French and the Aussie in 1990.

0:42:22 > 0:42:25You could also have Iva Majoli or Sergi Bruguera.

0:42:25 > 0:42:27Very well done if you got any of those at home.

0:42:27 > 0:42:32Brilliant, guys, we've done over 300 of the shows and you can count on the fingers of one hand

0:42:32 > 0:42:36people who've got three pointless answers in that final round. A real achievement.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38You absolutely deserve that money. Congratulations.

0:42:38 > 0:42:42APPLAUSE

0:42:42 > 0:42:43I can't believe it's happening.

0:42:43 > 0:42:47Well, thanks once again to our winning players,

0:42:47 > 0:42:51Miriam and Geoff, who go away with today's jackpot of £14,750.

0:42:51 > 0:42:54CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:42:57 > 0:43:00Join us next time when we'll be putting more obscure knowledge to the test.

0:43:00 > 0:43:02- It's goodbye from Richard.- Goodbye.

0:43:02 > 0:43:05And it's goodbye from me, goodbye.
